Giving baby Jaylen the gift of a healthy future

At Hot Cares, we believe every child deserves the best possible start in life. When we heard about baby Jaylen’s urgent medical need, we knew we had to act.

Born via C-section, Jaylen’s delivery was complicated, requiring medical instruments that shifted his skull. Doctors fear that this may have impacted a vein inside his brain, and without urgent intervention, his skull could harden in the wrong shape, leading to developmental, neurological, or visual impairments.

The solution? A cranial remoulding helmet—a specialized medical device that will gently reshape his skull while there’s still time. But the R44,000 cost isn’t covered by medical aid, leaving his parents scrambling to raise funds before his bones harden permanently at seven months old.

Jaylen’s parents have been doing everything they can, setting up fundraisers and spreading the word, but time is running out. That’s when Hot Cares stepped in.

We are covering the full R44,000 to ensure Jaylen gets the life-changing helmet he needs!

Charles and family, take a breath—Jaylen will get his helmet! This little warrior deserves every chance to thrive, and we’re honoured to be part of his journey.
